What is the Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server?
Connect to Maxar, the world leader in high-resolution satellite imagery, and integrate earth intelligence directly into your AI workflows. This server allows you to query the Maxar Discovery Service, manage orders, and access OGC-compliant streaming services.
What you can do
- Imagery Discovery — Search for available satellite imagery using spatial bounding boxes, temporal filters, and specific satellite collections (like WorldView-3).
- Product Ordering — Request delivery of specific imagery products (visual, multispectral, or panchromatic) directly to your cloud storage.
- ARD Metadata — Retrieve detailed metadata for Analysis Ready Data (ARD) tiles to streamline your geospatial analysis.
- Streaming Access — Get base URLs for OGC-compliant streaming services (WMS, WMTS) to visualize imagery in GIS applications or custom dashboards.
How it works
- Subscribe to this server
- Enter your Maxar Client ID and Client Secret
- Start querying the planet from Claude, Cursor, or any MCP-compatible client
Who is this for?
- Geospatial Analysts — Quickly find and inspect imagery for specific regions without leaving your analysis environment.
- Data Scientists — Automate the discovery and ordering of training data for machine learning models.
- GIS Developers — Retrieve streaming endpoints and tile metadata to power custom mapping applications.

Why teams choose Vinkius for Maxar (Satellite Imagery) in OpenAI Agents SDK
The Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS — a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts. All 4 tools execute in hardened sandboxes optimized for native MCP execution.
Your AI agents in OpenAI Agents SDK only access the data you authorize, with DLP that blocks sensitive information from ever reaching the model, kill switch for instant shutdown, and up to 60% token savings. Enterprise-grade infrastructure, zero maintenance.
* Every MCP server runs on Vinkius-managed infrastructure inside AWS - a purpose-built runtime with per-request V8 isolates, Ed25519 signed audit chains, and sub-40ms cold starts optimized for native MCP execution. See our infrastructure
How Vinkius secures
Maxar (Satellite Imagery) for OpenAI Agents SDK
Every tool call from OpenAI Agents SDK to the Maxar (Satellite Imagery) MCP Server is protected by DLP redaction, cryptographic audit chains, V8 sandbox isolation, kill switch, and financial circuit breakers.
Frequently asked questions
How do I search for satellite imagery in a specific geographic area?
You can use the search_discovery tool by providing a bounding box (bbox) array with [min_lon, min_lat, max_lon, max_lat] coordinates and an optional datetime interval.
Can I get streaming links for use in GIS software like QGIS or ArcGIS?
Yes! Use the get_mws_endpoints tool to retrieve the base URLs for OGC-compliant WMS and WMTS services provided by Maxar Web Services.
What information is required to order a specific image?
To use the create_order tool, you need the unique item_id of the image, the desired product_type (e.g., visual), and a delivery_config JSON specifying the destination.
How does the OpenAI Agents SDK connect to MCP?
Use MCPServerSse(url=...) to create a server connection. The SDK auto-discovers all tools and makes them available to your agent with full type information.
Can I use multiple MCP servers in one agent?
Yes. Pass a list of MCPServerSse instances to the agent constructor. The agent can use tools from all connected servers within a single run.
Does the SDK support streaming responses?
Yes. The SDK supports SSE and Streamable HTTP transports, both of which work natively with Vinkius.
